Beaver Island property owners are encouraged to attend a public township meeting regarding the control of documented invasive plants on private and public lands.
To learn more about the Sustain Our Great Lakes and Conservation Resource Alliance's invasive plant control efforts on Beaver Island, join us for hot dogs on Friday, June 5th, at 3:00PM, at the Peaine Township Hall.
Herbicide application will occur along the Great Lakes shoreline and interior wetlands, along roadsides and utility corridors of Beaver Island beginning in early June, and ending around the middle of September. Signs will be posted to indicate where work is being done at any given time.
If you are a property owner, you likely received a request for permission to treat your property. Hundreds of letters have been returned, with permission granted. Whether you readily signed, or hesitated to give permission, we would like the opportunity to explain procedures and answer questions.
Township officials, the herbicide contractor, and the Phragmites Administrator will be available to answer questions.
For further information contact: Cindy Ricksgers (231) 448-2960.

This is a great opportunity to ask questions about invasive species possibly on your property and thank the Conservation Resource Alliance(CRA) for paying for last year's Phragmites treatment and this year's control efforts. The townships would not have this funding without CRA's assistance for Phragmites control.
